The Mine is the underground mining cave on the Mainland — the place where every new miner starts. Its entrance is a stone hill with a timber-framed cave mouth, marked on the world map with a pickaxe icon. Inside, the Old Miner teaches Mining and hands out a free starter Pickaxe, and the cave floor is dotted with rock nodes to swing it at.
The Mine follows the Mainland's safe rules — no PvP, and nothing is lost here.
The Old Miner
The Old Miner stands in the north of the cave. Talk to him to learn Mining and receive a free Pickaxe; if you later lose your pickaxe, he will hand out a replacement. See Old Miner for his full dialogue and services.
Mining
The cave holds a fixed layout of rock nodes, from single rocks up to 2x2 clusters — bigger rocks take more swings and give more material before they crumble. Each swing gives 1 material: a single rock is 6 swings for 6, a two-tile rock 7, and a 2x2 cluster 10. Roughly one rock in four has dark veins and carries Coal; the rest give Stone. A mined-out rock reappears 30-60 seconds later, and waits if somebody is standing on the tile.
| Rock | Yield | Mining level | XP per mined-out rock |
|---|---|---|---|
| Plain rock | Stone | None | 20 |
| Dark-veined rock | Coal | None | 25 |
Any pickaxe works here, including the starter Pickaxe. For Iron Ore you need Frostmere's rocks (Mining 5), and for Silver Ore the Dunes (Mining 20) — The Mine itself is stone and coal country.
Rare drop
| Drop | Chance | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Mining Hard Hat | 1 in 5,000 per mined-out rock | Only drops in The Mine — nowhere else. Part of the Mining outfit; wearing the full kit pays +5% Mining XP. |
The Mining Vest and Mining Trousers drop from mined-out rocks anywhere at 1 in 200,000 each. Free accounts (holding under 1,000 $KINS) never receive outfit drops.
